PROGAS GmbH & Co KG: Energy from Dortmund for the whole of Germany

Against the backdrop of environmental pollution and climate change, liquefied petroleum gas is among the most im­por­tant energy sources and serves as a bridge to the future. The company PROGAS, based in Dortmund, is one of the leading providers for this environmentally-­friendly and efficient product in Germany.

Several customers place their trust in the services of the liquefied petroleum gas specialist, both as a reliable energy supplier for business and private customers and as a producer of high-quality aerosol propellants for the industry. PROGAS is also a pioneer in its own sector with regard to a number of innovative options for the use of the gases propane and butane, for example for the inexpen­sive and environmentally-friendly Autogas or the use of energy-efficient technologies like heat pumps and thermal power stations.

The success story began in 1949 with a small liquefied petroleum gas sales com­pany on the site of a former factory in Dortmund’s Körne district. Thanks to con­tinuous, solid economic growth, PROGAS today runs a nationwide supply network in Germany with 18 warehouses, filling stations and some shareholdings in Duis­­­­burg, Düren and Gelsenkirchen, amongst others. The headquarters are still located in Dortmund.
